Welcome, ladies, to the Expecting a Sibling Weekly Check-In! I will try to post this check-in each Friday morning - afternoon, so be looking for it! I'll also try to repost this around Saturday-Sunday so that others can add to our thread. If you'd like you can also put the date of your next checkup or u/s and I'll add next to your name so that we can send good thoughts your way on that particular day.
Below is the list of ladies who have joined us, 88 so far! If you would like to be added to our list, please leave your Bump Name, your real name (if you choose to share), and what number child this will add to your family. Newbies are always welcome, as well as proud step parents & those adopting!
For those who are newbies please read the post New to January Moms or The Bump? (thank you to mchupie!). It will help answer so many questions, and you can also grab the January Joy button code from that post. There is also a bump glossary located here. And an unofficial glossary located here. The unofficial glossary contains a lot more bump lingo.

General QOTD: How has your week been? - Long, tiring, and I've been an emotional wreck. But on the bright side the week is over and I have DH to help me out starting this evening!
QOTD: With fall/autumn upon us, what are looking forward to most about this season?- THE COOL WEATHER!!!
I haven't been around for a sibling check-in for a while! Hope everyone is doing well!
General QOTD: How has your week been? Pretty long--DS had a fever, I'm battling a cold, and work has been busy. I'm so ready for the weekend!
QOTD: With fall/autumn upon us, what are looking forward to most about this season? I love fall--our anniversary is in October and I love the cooler weather.

General QOTD: How has your week been? Good, thanks for asking!!
QOTD: With fall/autumn upon us, what are looking forward to most about this season? Everything!! This is my favorite time of year... pumpkins, cute decorations, spooky movies, the cold, crisp fall air, the fashion... the food... you name it, and I'll love it!!
EDIT: my due date is Jan 9th Next appointment: Tues, October 19th

General QOTD: How has your week been? busy, busy, busy between work, doctor appointments and trying to get stuff done around the house
QOTD: With fall/autumn upon us, what are looking forward to most about this season? Being able to wear my fall/winter clothes, I've outgrown most of my summer maternity clothes already
*Can you edit my info - we are TEAM PINK yay!!!!!!
It has been a long, exhausting week and my BF is going away for the weekend so I am going to try to catch up on some naps and shows in the DVR LOL
I love the fall. Wearing sweaters and apple picking, the smell of the leaves. I'll probably do something with my sister and the kiddos tomorrow to distract me from missing my guy.
this week has been ok. pregnancy-wise has been great, but life-wise has been up and down, house repairs, long work hours and a sick dd make for a long week. we had our ultrasound this week and are expecting a son. i love seeing the baby on the ultrasound, just makes everything more real.
i am most looking forward to the cooler weather and changing leaves. i think fall is beautiful so i'll probably try to have dh take some maternity pictures since i'm already bigger than i was at this point last time.
The week has been rough but rewarding. We took our first DD's binkie away Tuesday and the first two nights were the worst, but last night she only woke up once but fell back asleep right away
I love the apple picking, foliage walks, fairs, playing in the leaves, yummy, hearty warm meals! This all just seems more exciting when you have little ones to share it with.
I keep missing this check in! My EDD is now 1/23. We're still team green.
General QOTD: My week has been pretty good, considering DH has been at a conference all week. DD is usually pretty good when he's gone, and I'm not nearly as tired these days. I think the nicer weather is helping. And I've been keeping us busy. DD did have some teething-induced sleep issues, but we're getting past them.
QOTD: I'm most looking forward to the cooler weather and spending lots of time outside. Today is awfully hot and muggy, so I can't wait for sweater weather, apple picking, and pumpkins. I'm also looking forward to Halloween, since it will be the first that DD can actually Trick-or-Treat.

General QOTD: How has your week been? It has been slow and boring. I haven't really done anything but eat and sleep. I have been feeling like crap because of this horrible cold I have. I also have not been getting sleep lately because of the pains I get. So I have been cranky and everyone has been staying away from me. QOTD: With fall/autumn upon us, what are looking forward to most about this season? The cool weather. I am so tired of this heat right now it is 93degrees outside, and my ac is on the fritz so it is 80 inside.
General QOTD: How has your week been? Pretty good, although everything seems to make me crampy and tired lately. I think I'm nesting, though. I suddenly want to clean EVERYTHING.
QOTD: With fall/autumn upon us, what are looking forward to most about this season? Halloween and Thanksgiving. They are my favorite holidays.

General QOTD: My week has just flown by. I seriously woke up surprised that it was already Friday and ticker change day for me.
QOTD: Definitely the cooler weather + fun outings like going to pumpkin patches and whatnot, hooray for autumn!!

It's been a pretty awful week with DS being sick. He's just been miserable and I haven't gotten any sleep.
I'm most looking forward to the cool weather and fall baking.
